No way… They were definitely doing this because of the environment and cooling zones in 1857! /s

Green spaces have cooling affects around them, so all sides benefit if it’s in the center

Oh my god, I saw this on c/all and was wondering why the hell Charlie Kirk was impregnating aliens LMAO too me a bit to notice which community this was posted in

Most of my qualms with AI aren’t in the usage of AI, but in its creation (water usage, mass layoffs, etc.—you’ve heard it all before).

To me it’s like asking “What are some good uses for slaves?” (An extreme example to show the point, I’m not trying to say AI is the same as slavery).

Like yeah I could find good uses for it, but should it exist in the first place?

Oh boy it was an amazing surprise for me. I hadn’t been keeping up with the Marvel films and my friends invited me to Thor: Ragnarok (I hadn’t seem the first two).

I was absolutely flabbergasted to see the Hulk there. I was like “What the fuck is he doing here! This is awesome!”

Sometimes it’s great to be out-of-the-loop

…that is not what they said at all

I think this might be AI generated.

Her right backpack strap doesn’t have the same buckle as the left one.

One of her eyelishes isn’t connected to her eye. Only one eyebrow.

What is that gun? Where is the trigger and trigger guard?

Has the general gen-AI vibe.

Message is neat but fuck generative AI

This doesn’t seem very anarcho-nihilist of you, lumpen ;)

Who’s the little green guy?

Holy em-dashes, Batman!

I’m an enjoyer of em dashes, myself (before AI 😢) but that is far too many

Apparently, the original idea was for humans to be used for computing power, not as batteries. But they were worried people wouldn’t understand that so changed it to batteries (which makes no sense). Something like that. The similarity is in dumbing down the concept

What about having no skin?

Wow I have never seen the unedited version of this before!

Sounds like you should do it

This is likely not the Generative AI, LLM-slop type of AI you’re thinking of.

I hate generative AI. But other forms of AI and machine learning have been used for much longer and haven’t facilitated the building of ecologically harmful datacenters.

For example, AlphaFold, which is an AI program that can predict how proteins fold and is an incredibly useful tool.

I expect that the use of AI here would be similar: something trained for a specific purpose, not just generic generative AI tech like ChatGPT

Name checks out

You could’ve highlighted the whole thing

Yeah easy to miss. They’re great I love them,

Yes but this is an anti-meme community
